Église de Saint-Pantaléon, Romanesque church in Saint-Pantaléon, France
The stone church features a wide transept ending in three semi-circular apses, with the central apse carved directly into the rock formation.
Built in the 11th century, the church underwent modifications in the 12th century with the addition of a northern collateral and a votive chapel in 1727.
The surrounding rock-hewn cemetery contains graves of adults and children from the 11th and 12th centuries, serving as a sanctuary for stillborn infant baptisms.
The church stands at a crossroads near the cemetery, accessible via departmental roads D148 and D104 connecting Gordes and Goult in Vaucluse.
Latin inscriptions on the central apse date from the 6th century, making it a reference point for dating the original place of worship.
